ARS:
Medium pink Miniature. Registration name: MORchick Exhibition name: Chick-a-dee
Bloom:
Pink, stripes. Mild fragrance. 40 to 50 petals. Blooms in flushes throughout the season.
Growing:
USDA zone 6b and warmer. Spring Pruning: Remove old canes and dead or diseased wood and cut back canes that cross. In warmer climates, cut back the remaining canes by about one-third. In colder areas, you'll probably find you'll have to prune a little more than that. Requires spring freeze protection (see glossary - Spring freeze protection) .

Notes:
Chick-a-dee was removed from the Auckland Regional Botanic Gardens (ARBG) Display Trial because all the plants died in the year they were planted.
